    To the cry of “follow Mormons and prairie dogs and find good land,” Civil War veterans flocked into Nebraska, joining a vast stampede of unemployed workers, tenant farmers, and European immigrants.

    If all the year were playing holidays,
    To sport would be as tedious as to work;

    And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents.
